IMPORTANT TO NOTE:
Homeschoolers DO NOT NEED grade levels beyond 6th grade! When you cover World History and Basic Science go take theCLEP TEST for these. A good score on the test gets you college credits in most colleges. These multiple choice tests are easy once you have a solid understanding of the materials covered!
General Clep information Study outlines
Although I have links for each subject here you definitely want to go to the subject page. When you design your own courses you will want to use materials without regard to grade level. Make sure your "primary" textbook is at or above your grade level secondary materials can be any grade level in fact I don't even list the grade level in Homeschool Tracker I just the Title and ISBN
Another Helpful Study Guide is found at XP Math and it is for the SAT test. Xp Math has a ton of links to math books and such. Their link is on our math page but if you missed it try here.
General Tools These may have complete courses or just a week long lessons or even 1 day lesson! YMI TEACHING Free ED Has Dozens of free courses for grade 7 and up through Adult Learners. Every subject is covered here. MIT free courses PASS TEXTBOOKS These cover almost every subject. I have these already put into Homeschool Tracker Plus Lesson Plan Format if you would Like. List these as secondary textbooks since they were originally created to be for students with learning issues but the State of Florida now uses them for all students. If you are doing your own diploma this is fine as a primary text because you transcript will not show what materials you used but if you are using a private school like NARHS to get your diploma they will only let this be a primary text if the student is Learning disabled. You can also get the Teachers Guides by emailing them for a Password.
